[Ham-Mac] new software / Hams and X page updated

[Steve Muncy]

The Hams and X web page has been refreshed to include one new entry and 
one update:

      <http://homepage.mac.com/smuncy/hamradio/HamsAndX.html>

I have released one NEW program. RadioDXCluster : RadioDXCluster is 
simple, configurable terminal software used to control your TNC 
(Terminal Node Controller) to connect with your local AR-DX Cluster 
using your radio. This program combines features contained in MacTNC, a 
TNC control program, and NetDXCluster (formerly MacDXCluster), similar 
software that accesses DX Clusters via the Internet rather than a radio 
link.RadioDXCluster offers user-definable buttons and standard TNC 
command buttons. This software  requires Mac OS X 10.1.3 or later, and 
a TNC and radio for connection to a DX Cluster.

I have also released an extensively updated program, NetDXCluster, 
formerly called MacDXCluster. NetDXCluster provides amateur (ham) radio 
operators access to AR DX Cluster nodes using telnet via the Internet. 
Obviously an Internet connection is required. This software only works 
under Mac OS X 10.1.3 or later. It also requires the BSD subsystem that 
is typically installed when installing OSX. If the BSD subsystem option 
was not installed, you will probably receive a quick failure on 
starting it up. NetDXCluster works by launching Telnet in a shell and 
letting that do the networking.

Both programs are freeware.
